- A quick video on installing the outer cam bearings in the camplate, and retainer. A shop press is needed.
You can also heat up the camplate and drop bearings in (provided camplate is heated up evenly to avoid damaging it.
Looks like we're installing new cam bearings to a Screaming Eagle cam plate? I've got an older Twinkie that will need to have that done, but am leaning towards the S&S options.
Yes, I’m doing the SE upgrade. They are all good to be honest (S&S, Fueling, SE. Though, S&S is probably the best of all, hence the high price tag. Are you going for gear drive conversion?
@@aronsgarage834 not sure...need to measure run-out...only 14K miles on the bike, so hopefully I can go that route. Otherwise, I guess I settle for the hydraulic tensioner option. But, those seem to work well on the newer TC when they made that change in 2007, I think?
Yeah, they do. They last a long time.
Yes, checking runout is a must. That’s part of the reason why I went for the hydraulic (safe option) as I had bought the kit over 2 years ago not knowing when I’d do the project with the videos. I didn’t want to take it all apart just to check the runout.
Also, mine being a 99 model, If I remember correctly, there were limited options for upgrade due to the early crankcase which was modified 2000 up.
@@aronsgarage834 IIRC, you've got the Timken bearings in your case, so you should be set for life! 🤘👍
Yeah, pretty blessed with that.
